I Hunt Killers by Barry Lyga. Fantastic book!!! Would recommend this to everyone. It shows the thoughts and worries of the son of a serial killer and the difficulties of growing up with the reputation of being a serial killers son.

I Hunt Killers by Barry Lyga is an edgy thriller that I really enjoyed. I love finding YA crime novels because so many of my students enjoy mysteries and Dean Koontz novels. Many of my Dean Koontz fans have a hard time trying YA, so being able to hand them a couple of good YA mysteries or crime novels is always appreciated. One thing to keep in mind about I Hunt Killers is that considering the very nature of the book, it’s sometimes very graphic and descriptive. Jazz has lived a horrific life that I can’t imagine any child experiencing. His memories and the crime scenes are often gruesome. I believe in allowing students to self-censor, but knowing my students and having read this book will help me recommend I Hung Killers to the right students. If you plan on adding Barry Lyga’s newest novel to your library or class library, which I hope you do, I recommend reading it first.
